Person taking stock -- as walker through woods in autumn? (7)
I believe the answer is:
rustler
'person taking stock' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for rustler that I've seen before include "Cattle-robber" , "Stock taker?" , "He stole cattle in the old west" , "person taking stock" , "One who takes livestock" .)
